memory card Is the 2.0 GB the largest you can use with this model? Or will it use the 4.0 GB Ultra?

it only works with regular sd cards, the biggest of which are 2 gb. the 4 gb sd hc (high capacity) cards are not the same and usually only work in newer cameras. the fz8 works with sdhc cards.

Using the 4 GB version. I don't know the official answer but I had a 16 GB card, it recognized at first but then I was having buggy problems (wouldn't turn on) and so I took out the card and it seemed to work better. However I'm not truly sure it was the card. I'm thinking the device is just buggy (have RMA'd once already and still problems. )

I use it with Class 10 and personally I use 32GB. But that depends on how wure you want to be about it playing smoothly your videos (class 10 would be a better bet), and how big and number of videos you want to store in the memory (in my case I do not want to run any risk of getting a full memory signal, so 32GB was my safe bet).

I have a 64 gb class 10 in mine. It works great. Never run out of room for more shots. The display has a limitation of 9999 shots. I have never shot enough even on vacation to lower it. I must have shot 1,000 shots at 2 mg and full resolution on maybe 20 shots. Plus about a 1/2 hour of video. Does not put a dent on the 64 gb storage card

I put a two gig memory card in mine. It was kinda on accident. I bought I 1 gig on ebay and they accientally sent me a 2 gig. So I decide to try it. It works great and have no probs yet.

Great tips in this thread, thanks.I can't find what memory card I can get for my new 790. Does anyone know if it will take an 8 or even a 16 gig SDHC card? And can I use a "Class 6", or is it only able to accept/benefit from a "Class 4"? Can anyone recommend a solid, inexpensive card reader for SDHC cards? Thanks for your replies.

The manual that came with the device is not clear about the maximum size of memory it support but I'm using a 32 GB Class 10 TF Card and it works fine. However; I haven't tried a 64 GB yet... Sorry!!!

Interesting. I never even knew that standard SD (not SDHC) were available up to 8 gig. I thought that they maxed out at 2 gigs. good to know. Wish the thing DID read SDHC at the card slot. Still, it's a pretty nice device.

I'm pretty sure the file system for the MicroSD slot is FAT16. So, even when they make bigger cards, the largest you'll ever be able to use is the 2GB ones.

I used a 32gb card and it works fine. I'm not sure you can use a larger one. We just have an extra card if we need it, but haven't had to switch them yet. The camera comes with a USB cord to connect to the computer, but I just remove the card and use my computer's card reader.Hope this helps,Tim

I have the same question.I ordered a 2 GB card and don't know if it acutally will work with this camera.

I've been using a 16 GB class 6 with no problems since I got mine a few years back - I often download the videos and pics through my laptop's SD card slot and it has no trouble with a full memory.

I emailed Asus when I inserted a 64gb generic card and it would not work. There are specific cards it will work with so check out asus info. Also DO NOT FORMAT THE CARD or you ruin it... gee nice to know huh? Kingston and Sandisk are the two I am shopping for because I have used them before and trust the brand. The SanDisk Ultra is on sale right now too I noticed on Amazon.

The largest I have ever used is an 8gb in my D300. I do not know if a 16 or 32 may be used.

Hello Mike, sorry for taking so long to reply, I was out of town. I may only be able to help you with one of your questions, unless you want to walk me thorugh figuring out the other ones. The SD card slot IS full size. The highest memory is 128 GB. NOt sure about the rest. Hope this helps.

I'm almost positive the largest it will recognize is a 2 GB microSD (not miniSD). 2 GB is the largest microSD i'm aware of. However... my brother claims he met someone who was using this player with a 5 GB microSD card. I looked all over the internet, and the largest I've seen is 2 GB, so I don't think there are 5 GB cards.
